Late-night host Stephen Colbert had to halt filming of his CBS show this week because he has once again contracted COVID-19.
Deadline reported Monday that he was going to record “The Late Show” from his home after contracting the virus.
On Wednesday, however, Colbert announced a change of plans.
“Sorry to say, per doctor’s orders, I’m going to be out for the rest of the week,” he said in a statement on the show’s X social media account.
“Resting up so that I can deliver the hand crafted, artisanal talk show that we so enjoy serving you,” Colbert continued.
“In the meantime, a heady blend of Paxlovid and onions in my socks (thank you, Fallon) will be rebuilding my immune system,” he said, referring to NBC late-night host Jimmy Fallon.

This isn’t Colbert’s first go-around with COVID-19. He previously had the virus in April 2022
